[Equest-users] modeling all glass sunroom

[R B]

The advantage of sunspace is that it allows you to have windows in the
interior wall through which radiation will go through (not sure if
daylighting will be calculated - should be mentioned in the manual). If you
do not have any windows on the interior wall, you could possibly make all
the walls as windows (never personally done this).
